Chapter 5: The Secret She Never Told Her Daughter

Months passed.
The mansion was sold.
The grandmother was facing trial.
Clara and her daughter moved into a small peaceful home.
No guards.
No fear.
No secrets.
But one nightâŠ
Her daughter found an old box.
Inside was a photograph.
A photograph of Clara and another little girl.
âMommyâŠâ
âWho is she?â
Clara froze.
She had hoped this day would never come.
âThat was your sister.â
The little girl looked confused.
âI have a sister?â
Clara nodded.
âShe was born before you.â
Tears filled her eyes.
âBut she didnât survive.â
Her daughter hugged her.
âIâm sorry, Mommy.â
Clara held her tightly.
She thought the pain was finally over.
Until the next morningâŠ
A letter arrived.
